Price Guidance - Agents know what to offer when you have found the house you want to purchase. Also, they know what to price your home at when you are selling. 






Market Condition - Is the home you are looking at a good deal? Ask your agent! They also know all the homes within your budget that are for sale and what homes are comparable to yours when selling.

            <title>Before Putting Your Home on the Market...</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ 
Spring is just around the corner and is a time when sellers are ready to call an agent and get their home on the market. Preparing and staging your house is beneficial for both obtaining maximum price and for selling quickly. Taking the time to prep your home, turns it into a desirable and very marketable property that buyers will certainly be interested in. Consider the next few ideas before doing anything!




DO NOT LOOK BACK. Look toward the future! Part with or separate yourself from your house – imagine that it is just someplace to stay temporarily. Look at it as if you will be handing over the keys any day to the new owners.






DE-PERSONALIZE. Buyers often have a hard time looking past personal photos of family and what you like to call, treasures. You want buyers to imagine themselves living in the home with their photos on the wall, so take yours down!






DE-CLUTTER. Think of it like this, if you do not use it, get rid of it. Less is always more. Pack your chotchkes in a box to be put in storage. Clean everything off the kitchen counters, after all, the kitchen is the FIRST thing most buyers will look at.






ORGANIZE KITCHEN CABINETS &amp; ALL CLOSETS. Let’s face it, buyers are nosy, they will open every door that is not locked. You want to make sure everything is neat in its place. Again, if you do not need or use it, pack it in a box for storage.






RENT A STORAGE UNIT. Homes show better with less furniture. If a room has big, bulky furniture, buyers have a hard time looking past that and imagining their own belongings in the room. Leave plenty of room to move around and walk through every room. Renting a storage unit allows you to put the unused pieces someplace until you move into your new home.






REMOVE ITEMS THAT ARE NOT STAYING WITH THE HOME. For example, lights, curtain rods, ceiling fans, etc. Sometimes if these items are left up, buyers will automatically think that they come with the home. Save yourself the trouble as it could turn into a giant headache later on.






MAKE MINOR REPAIRS. These should really be obvious. If counters are cracked, holes are in the walls, deep scratches in the floor or stains in the carpet – fix or replace them. If doorknobs are not functioning properly or faucets are leaking it will deter buyers.






CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN AND KEEP IT CLEAN! Make sure windows are free of finger prints, stainless appliances are shinning, floors are swept, mopped or vacuumed, and bathrooms are spotless. It will not hurt to throw an air freshener in the wall either – homes that smell good leave a good impression. This also goes for the exterior, pressure wash the sidewalks, driveway and even the house itself if it needs it.






CURB APPEAL. This should go without saying! If a buyer drives by your home, but does not want to get out of the car, they will never go inside. Clean your yard, put some mulch down, mow the lawn, trim the bushes and plant some inexpensive flowers.BE THE BUYER. After you have done all these steps, drive by your own home…would you look at it? Step in the front door…could you imagine living here? If the answer is yes, you have done a great job. If the answer is no, go back and repeat until you get it right! It will make all the difference in getting your place sold!

            <title>Woodstock NY Real Estate</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ 
When looking for homes for sale in Ulster County, NY, an area of particular interest is Woodstock, NY. Woodstock, NY is ultimately known for its wide variety of art culture, from theatre to music to photography and all other art alike. This town comes alive with its vibrant small hamlet feel. People greet you with a smile as you pass them on the street and in the warm summer months it is not uncommon to hear music coming from a local musician playing on the grass in the center of town. Rich in history, Woodstock was home to many painters that attended the Hudson River School as well as musicians such as Van Morrison and Bob Dylan. There is a definite peaceful tranquility and creative vibe that is undeniable.   Woodstock, NY is just a short drive to just about everything. Throughout the Ulster County region, there are many activities to participate in, pleasing the likes of everyone. If biking is your thing, enjoy the many trails throughout the Catskill Mountains. There are also bike routes that go for miles and miles throughout Minnewaska and the Shawangunks. If you are a hiker don’t forget to bring your camera to take photos of the amazing scenery. The Shawangunk Mountains, endearingly referred to as the “Gunks”, provide some of the best rock climbing in all of NY State. Skiing is easy to accommodate with both Belleayre and Hunter Mountains in close proximity. For the avid sportsman, fishing in the Ashokan and nearby lakes in Phoenicia will prove instant gratification. There is also the Woodstock Golf Club, not a discriminating course with everybody being welcome despite status. It consists of only nine holes, but it certainly is not a bad way to spend a day!  Woodstock, NY is a very passionate hamlet to be a part of. In recent years, Woodstock has started groups and committees that are forging the way for the greener community. The Institute for local self-reliance was developed to provide innovative strategies and working models to support environmentally sound and reasonably fair community development. They work with the citizens of the community, activists, policymakers and entrepreneurs alike, to put in place systems and policies to ensure that benefits of these systems give back to all local citizens.   With all that Woodstock has to offer it is no wonder why people are buying a piece of real estate in Ulster County. Whether you are from the city looking for that perfect, creative weekend retreat, or moving to a new place full-time, look no further than Woodstock, NY. With homes ranging in size and price, it offers something for every buyer. If you are looking for a house with a view, it’s there, if you want a quiet bungalow, nestled in the woods, it’s there, if you would rather have a mansion on acres of land, that exists in Woodstock too! Consider Woodstock real estate when searching for your new home!

            <title>A Simple Explanation Of The Federal Reserve Statement (January 25, 2012)</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ 
Wednesday, the Federal Reserve's Federal Open Market Committee voted to leave the Fed Funds Rate unchanged within its current target range of 0.000-0.250 percent.


The Fed Funds Rate has been near zero percent since December 2008.


For the third consecutive month, the Fed Funds Rate vote was nearly unanimous. Just one FOMC member dissented in the 9-1 vote, objecting only to the language used in the Fed's official statement.


In its press release, the Federal Reserve noted that the the U.S. economy has "expanding moderately" since its last meeting in December 2011, adding that the growth is occurring despite "slowing in global growth" -- a reference to ongoing economic uncertainty within the Eurozone.


The Federal Reserve expects moderate economic expansion through the next few quarters but is wary of "strains" from global financial markets, and these three threats to the U.S. economy : 




The housing sector remains "depressed"


The unemployment rate remains "elevated"


Fixed business investment has "slowed"




On the positive side, the FOMC said that household spending is rising and inflation remains in-check. The group also believes that employment will gradually improve nationwide going forward.


The Federal Reserve neither introduced new economic stimulus, nor discontinued existing market programs.


Immediately following the FOMC's statement, mortgage markets rallied, pressuring mortgage rates to fall in and around New Paltz, Woodstock, and the entire Ulster County Real Estate area.


Mortgage rates remain near all-time lows and, for homeowners willing to pay points plus closing costs, conventional, 30-year fixed rate mortgages can be locked at below 4 percent. If you're in the process of buying or refinancing a home in Ulster County , it's a good time to lock a mortgage rate with your lender.


The FOMC's next scheduled meeting is a one-day event slated for March 13, 2012.

            <title>Pay Your Mortgage Early, Boost Your 2011 Federal Income Tax Deductions</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ 
Time is running out to boost to your 2011 federal tax refund. All you have to do is make your January 2012 mortgage payment while it's still December.


It's a simple tax strategy that works because of how mortgage interest is paid, and of how the U.S. tax code is written.


Different from rent which is paid for the month ahead (i.e. "you're paying January's rent"), mortgage payments are made only after mortgage interest has accrued (i.e. "you're paying for money you've already borrowed from the bank").


This is called "paying interest in arrears" and U.S. tax code states that the mortgage interest is tax-deductible in its year paid, subject to limitations.


By making the January 2012 mortgage payment in December 2011, therefore, homeowners who itemize their on their tax returns can apply their January mortgage payment's interest portion to their 2011's tax returns.


The alternative is to pay the mortgage on schedule, and wait for April 15, 2013 to claim the credit.


If you choose to pre-pay your mortgage and typically send your payment via USPS, give your check ample time to be delivered to your lender, and processed. Mail your check no later than Saturday, December 24.


For Ulster County homeowners that pay electronically, the process is simpler. Edit your online bill pay program to have your mortgage payment post no later than Thursday, December 29.


Make note, however. Not all mortgage interest is eligible for tax-deductibility, and not all homeowners throughout the state of New York who pay mortgage interest should itemize said interest on their tax returns.


Before prepaying on your mortgage, ask your tax professional for advice.

            <title>Thanksgiving In Ulster County - Tips For The Holidays</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ 
Thanksgiving in Ulster County is always a beautiful time of year. The autumn foliage is still bright and colorful; and decorations are put up, giving that warm glowing feel. The community comes together offering celebration and services to everyone. Some travel to be with friends, family and loved ones, while others open their homes to host Thanksgiving Dinner. If you're like many, who scramble with getting everything prepared, here are some good, and odd tips that may help make things a bit easier in preparing for company......


Cleaver Cleaning Tips!




Eliminating Pet Hair - To pick up pet hair, put on a wet rubber dishwashing glove and wipe your hand over surfaces. The hair will stick right to it. 





Shaving Cream to clean kitchen/bathroom tiles: Good for removing stains and grime. You don't have to get anything fancy - the cheaper, foam version should do just fine. Spray the foam over the tiles and let soak for a few minutes. Then get either a nail brush or toothbrush and scrub away. 





Try and clean your windows not on a sunny day. Working in the sun causes the cleaning solution to dry before you wipe it off, causing those nasty streaks! 





Got crayon on your walls, soak a rag with an ammonia and water solution and wipe away!





Have some heel marks, take a pencil eraser and erase them. They should disappear!





If you want a super shiny floor, put a piece of waxed paper under your dust mop. The dirt will stick to the mop, and the wax will give a nice sheen to the floor.





If you have a ring around the collar of your shirt, try putting some shampoo on the ring, is should dissolve the oil.





If you ever get hair spray on a mirror, wipe it off with rubbing alcohol and a rag.





If you get melted candle wax on your furniture never fear! Put a brown paper bag over the wax, and run a hot iron across it. The wax should stick the bag and peel off the furniture.

8th Annual New Paltz Turkey Trot: 5K Race, Walk and Fun Run


8 AM Registration and packet pick-up; 9 AM FREE Mashed Potato Kids ½ mile Fun Run (10 and under); 9:30 AM Turkey Trot 5K race, fun run, &amp; walk; 10:30 AM (approx.) Awards Ceremony. Race starts and ends at Water Street Market, Main Street, New Paltz, NY 12561

            <title>Easy Ways to Help Your Home Show Better and Sell Quicker!</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ 
1. Give your house a good cleaning. Make sure everything smells nice, and is squeaky clean! It is always easier to picture yourself in a clean home, than a dirty one!2. Try and store your more “personal” touches. If a house is more generic looking, people tend to be able to imagine them living there. If you have picture everywhere, and your figurine collections and so on all over the house. People looking at your home can get overwhelmed by your stuff, and not even see how amazing your home is!3. Try painting your walls more neutral colors. I went into a house the other day where every wall was bright green, eggplant purple or some other very distinctive color. Now, I am a Realtor and I can look past that, but it is in the same vein as all your personal things, some people might only see the paint, even though it is an easy thing to fix.4. De clutter your house. If you have everything out on the counters, and lots a of furniture everywhere, people will have a hard time walking around your house, and won’t be able to see the bone structure of your house. Ian easy flow in a house leads to people feeling more comfortable and making better offers!5. Take your pets with you when there's a showing or an open house is coming up. If a person loves the house, but hates cats, and your cat is crawling all over them, guess what, they are not making an offer on your house. It goes along with “neutralizing” your house. Make it a clean palate to let someone else paint their picture of living there!6. Clean up your front yard, and repaint the door. The Curb appeal will get people in the door! If they see an open house, to an amazing landscaped, neat home, people are going to want to stop and take a look!7. Replace any non working light bulbs! It is better to see you’re self in a well light and maintained house than a poorly light dark one.8. Have any leaks or drips, fix them, it isn’t a huge deal, but don’t give someone the excuse to not like your house.9. Re-caulk around tubs and showers, new caulk looks better than old caulk.10. Hire Murphy Realty Group, we will make your home the most competitive listing in your area! Stop by 304 Wall Street in Kingston. Or, give us a call at (845) 338-5252

Welcome to our Ulster County Real Estate Blog!!


Every real estate brokerage has to have a website in this day and age. But, not all websites are created equal. Some brokerages feature only their listings, and don’t really offer any services or any help with the process of home buying or selling.
